Easter on the mind

Today is the day

The reason we are alive

Because he died three days ago...

and today

he conquered the grave

The one who lived a sinless life

and He calls us to arise...

watch this drama that my church did this morning for Easter Sunday

(not my church, but another church doing it).

Are we living in this love and mercy that has been given to us?

Our chains are gone,

we are free from this LIFE: addiction, hurts, lies... they're gone. There's God who has conquered death. Nothing can go past him. Our lives and pasts may be filled with things that we regret, or we are upset 

about... someone may have hurt us, but our pasts are gone. God has defeated all of that.

"Arise my love, the grave no longer has a hold on you. No more death and sting, no more 

suffering, ARISE."

Here we are. Alive, and our God is alive.

We are his beloved. No matter what we've done. no matter what we will do.

We are HIS and he is OURS
